Star Wars: Boba Fett – Black, White and Red #2 Review
Setting and Introduction
The second issue of Star Wars: Boba Fett – Black, White and Red introduces us to Meddan, a new and densely populated planet in the Star Wars universe. This world hosts its share of shady characters and underground activities, reminiscent of places like Coruscant or Nar Shaddaa.
Plot and Characters
Boba Fett remains the galaxy's most determined bounty hunter, unstoppable despite conflicts, credits, or rival hunters. His target is Samu Mavolak, a man famed for being elusive. Owing money to nearly everyone he met, Samu perfected the art of escape and even managed to briefly outsmart Fett—until his trick was uncovered.
Though intimidating, Boba Fett displays unexpected compassion toward his quarry, adding a hint of humanity to his relentless pursuit. This nuance momentarily evokes similarities to Din Djarin, but ultimately the story follows a familiar bounty hunter path.
Character Detail
Samu Mavolak is a Zeltron, a humanoid species notable for its distinctive red skin.
"Boba Fett might be incredibly dangerous, but he’s not a monster."
Summary
This issue feels like a filler episode in the series, providing character depth but otherwise following familiar bounty hunter tales.
Author's Note
The story explores Boba Fett's relentless drive and surprising humanity, set against the vibrant backdrop of a new Star Wars world.
